Re: is an o/haul for my Couesnon worth it?

-- "I have a Monopole Conservatoire Couesnon. Looks like rosewood (all of it, not just the bell), but I guess it might be unstained grenadilla. Apart from an old crack repair and a chipped upper tenon (purely cosmetical, according to my tech), it looks great.

The serial is 26053, I have no idea how old it is." --

Oh that made me laugh! I think I said almost the same thing at least a year ago about my Monopole Conservatoire Couesnon, not quite as old as yours.

David Spiegelthal suggested it had dried out and needed oiling. This I did, very methodically, over a few weeks.

Sure enough, it turned back into a typical black clarinet and has stayed like that ever since.

I've seen another Cousnon exactly the same. Perhaps they used a different stain?
